What a lovely cottage!

We really enjoyed a relaxing and wonderful week at the most beautiful cottage ever. Everything was just brilliant. Everyone we met and talked to was really friendly and helpful, the cottage cosy and charming, so we did have a great week in Looe and would have loved to stay longer. Thank you very much for letting us stay, we will definitely be back at some point.

We loved the cottage, the location, cosy and wonderful and everyhting we needed. The balcony is perfect for the view and privacy. The only downside was it was a little small for us as we have atwo year old dog. Very apt for couple looking for a romantic and cosy break

Beautiful Cottage with Amazing Views

We loved Little Oaks , the cottage was spotless and so comfortable. The decking, summer house and the views were amazing and even in April we were able to take advantage of this. Plaidy Beach is dog friendly but beware, it is a steep walk down and even steeper coming back up!!

A lovely stay

We have just spent a lovely week in this gorgeous cottage. It had everything we needed and was decorated beautifully. My teenager loved chilling on the decking and in the summerhouse. Location was peaceful. Enjoyed walking down to Millendreath and Plaidy beaches in the mornings. Walk into Looe along coastal path was scenic. Would recommend to friends and family.

Tolles Cottage

Leider haben wir keine Mail mit dem Code für den Schlüsselkasten bekommen und somit standen wir vor verschlossener Tür. Die Agentur ging nicht ans Telefon und die Notfallnummer war in der Wohnung. Zum Glück war das Badezimmerfenster offen und wir konnten unsere Tochter durchs Fenster ins Haus bekommen, damit sie die Wohnung von innen öffnen konnte. Dann die Notfallnummer angerufen, keiner abgenommen, immer weg gedrückt. Dann zig Mails geschrieben und am nächsten Tag rief jemand zurück, entschuldigte sich paar mal mit der Begründung, das eine deutsche Telefonnummer als SPAM angesehen wird und deshalb niemand ran geht, schon komisch wenn man weiß das man an eine deutsche Familie vermietet. Ansonsten eine sehr schöne Gegend für Ausflüge. Ein Wäscheständer wäre schön und die Küchenutensilien müssten mal ausgetauscht werden, selten so stumpfe Messer vorgefunden. Dachterasse ist sehr schön, wahnsinns Aussicht.

Mooi huisje helaas niet zo schoon

We hebben een goed verblijf gehad. Alles was aanwezig in het huisje. Het was er helaas niet zo schoon. Het beeldige boven terras was ronduit smerig met heel veel vogelpoep. De omgeving is geweldig.

Prettig verblijf in Looe

Leuke cottage, met kleine tuin aan de voorzijde, maar de zee heel dichtbij (met wel een aardige klim). Prima voorzieningen in de cottage en Looe heel dichtbij. We hebben ervan genoten.

Haus in Beschreibung schön geredet

Allgemeiner Zustand ging grade so. Bad war sauber, Teppiche überall gesaugt. Staub nicht wirklich gründlich entfernt. Es klebte an manchen Stellen sehr auf den Oberflächen. Küche eine Katastrophe. Töpfe jnd Pfanne dreckig. Dunstabzug seit Monaten nicht gereinigt, voll klebenden toten Tieren und Spinnen. Geschirr nicht sauber mussten wir erst alles spülen. Wasch-Trockner naja, es hat gemuffelt, irgendwas nicht sauber in der Maschine. Terrasse ist der Clou, ein paar Stufen laut Anzeige sind 20 ungleiche und duch Dornenbüsche überwucherte steile Steinstufen, der Garten hätte dringend Pflege nötig, wenn das genutzt werden soll. Reklamationen Vorort wurden nicht beantwortet. Wäschewechsel zum Wochenwechsel erfolgte trotz Mailangebot nicht. Die Landschaft ist sehr schön, auch der Sonnenaufgang über dem Meer ist toll, aber das Haus war alles andere als wie beschrieben.

A great week's stay in a quaint cottage! Clean, characterful. Good location, close to Looe and on coastal path. There are steep steps down to property and up to decked area.

Fantastic Quirky Little Cottage - a lovely secret hideaway

After visiting Cornwall many times and staying near, and in, St Ives we decided for October half term we would not go as far down and after visiting Looe a number of times, picked this area to stay. We then found this beautiful cottage on the internet and fell in love with its quirkiness immediately. We were not disappointed and having a car park space made it even more perfect, you would struggle without a car. The weather was horrendous for nearly the full week but we had to make the most of it. We would like to stay here in the summer months to make use of decking and summer house as it had a perfect view and was close, if you have young children, and better weather, to get to the beach. However, we visited lots of places, some further afield so we did do a lot of driving. The area is very peaceful, but steep, so if you are with anyone with mobility problems, the only way to get down to the cottage is via narrow steps, and the bathroom / toilet is downstairs. As for the cottage, it just had everything you could possibly wish for, from dishwasher to washer/dryer, microwave, hairdryer, bedding, towels and lots of kitchen utensils. The décor is done with a seaside theme in mind. Contact with the owners was fantastic and they did everything they could to assist with any queries, both before and after.

Little Oaks Cottage

We we're absolutely delighted with the cottage. Tastefully decorated. Attention to every detail. . Most welcoming. If I had to pick out anything negative, it would be that we could not find instructions for washing machine and would suggest that recycling card be left in kitchen as we only found it on top of washing machine when looking for manual. Loved the summer house even though it wasn't best of weather, it was cosy. Cream teas were most welcoming too. Would highly recommend a stay at cottage. All attractions we're usually within an hour drive but because Cornwall's so full of pretty little villages we got waylaid a few times, which is what it's all about. Would not hesitate to book property again.
